"Adventure of blue fate" game for the PS Vita and PS3 to be released on July 25 in Japan

Arc System Works began streaming the second promotional video for its upcomingXblaze Code: Embryo adventure game on Saturday.

Producer Toshimichi Mori is leading his BlazBlue team on this brand-new project, and he has indicated that Xblaze Code: Embryo has ties to the story world of BlazBlue. The other staff members include director Hiroaki Masuzawa and character designer Konomi Higuchi.

The "adventure of blue fate" begins when high-school boy Tōya (voiced by Yukitoshi Kikuchi) is drawn by the sound of a bell into an abandoned facility involved in a dangerous incident in the past. There, he finds a man who is groaning in pain. When he asks if the man is OK, the man attacks him. At the moment he thought that he would die, a small girl with a sword named Es (voiced by Mayuka Nomura) appears and saves him.

Arc System Works will release the game for the PlayStation Vita and PlayStation 3 systems in Japan on July 25. Pre-orders of the game will contain the game's original soundtrack CD.
